    Well i’m in the same boat a few weeks ago but my pc can’t start for some reason and have to reinstall windows, and since every app is wiped i just switched to firefox from then on.

      Can you at least recover your files? Been here a couple times. I mean, it’s Windows. 😝

      My goto for quick? Backup: • %ProgramData% • Your user folder: Users\yourname

      • Including the AppData folder. • Registry backup
      • browser favorites export

      Most apps can be reinstalled. Their settings are in programdata and appdata usually. Anything else you might need is probably in the registry.

        The file still there, just that in the process of reinstall windows it also uninstall all app, so i just thought “meh” and start all over again. Now i don’t have to clean unused app and obsolete website bookmark myself 🙈
